Did you ever sign up for beta builds on the essential website? If so, did you check "send me offers and promotions" when you submitted your email? I'm assuming this is how you get on the mailing list. (I may be wrong)

I'm not sure. I have been on the beta builds as soon as they launched, and was getting OTA updates as well.

Amazon sells it $100 cheaper every day. Maybe there will be a better price from Amazon or BestBuy for a short of time. Stay tuned.

I received my $100 off code after signing up. It's only valid until June 7th though.

I got the offer, if anyone wants the code to purchase a PH-1 Pm me. I already have one and I love his phone. Just supporting the community. Thx
**--no longer available--**

I got one as well, happy to share it too!
*mine is also gone now*

I can share a code too.

Anyone out there still have one? I was holding out for the PH-2 but with recent news and my Note 5 on its last leg, I need to pick up something. Any help is greatly appreciated!

You can read the grossly exaggerated horror stories, endlessly repeated duplicate posts, and emotional circular ranting taking place on the One X forum. It's quite entertaining. There's one thread discussing graphics issues that's rambled on for 50+ pages without a shred of anything substantive to discuss. I come to the XL forum to get away from it.

It's not really backordered. It's just the system being wonky because it's a pre order. If you pre order through AT&T and you get the email stating you'll get it shipped on May 2nd, you're fine.
And as long as you order your phone before 4pm EST on the 2nd, you should get it. But to be safe, just do it on the 1st. haha
This phone is popular in the tech world, but it's no iPhone. They'll have stock.

It doesn't say it in your order confirmation? This is an excerpt of what I got.
"Your order is scheduled to be shipped on May/02/2012. Orders received after 3 p.m. CST will be processed the next business day. All orders are processed on a first-come, first-served basis. You will receive a confirmation email when your order is ready to ship."

Im gonna preorder through at&t
I pre-ordered (through AT&T) on Sunday, and the email I got says "expected to be delivered by May 4th, 2012" That's more than a week away....
I'm using my wife's upgrade, and when I went to see about the Radio Shack offer ($50 less), they said that the phone had to be on the number it was purchased on for 31 days or they'd charge the full price of the phone to my card.

*** $21 Qi Wireless Charger!!! *** It works with N4 & N7

I just ordered this and hopefully it will work on our GN4:
http://www.ahappydeal.com/product-137289.html
If anyone have any experienced with it, please post your short review here.
TIA
Update:
I had this charger for less than a week now and all I can say it.....WOW and I will order 1 more for a car-mod.
It does require 5V 2A power inverter and it also charges my new G7 (2013)
Even my N4 has a thick casing, it was no problem with this charger compared to other Qi chargers. Placement is also not pinicky.

why was the money returned??

so i checked my bank account and the money that was spent for the nexus 5 was returned to my bank account?? what could be going on, it still says pending on the google page for my order.
Google put a pending transaction on the account to check funds are available and I believe it only lasts a couple of days before being removed.

Yep Google pre auth your card to ensure its a working card they ONLY debit your account once the phone is shipped. As such the money for the phone will sit on your account as an auth amount taking it off your available balance. When Google don't collect the money it becomes avail again. Once the phone ships they will debit your account again for the full amount again and collect the funds this is it will show on your account as a transaction you can see.

Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
From a technical standpoint it's illegal in many states in the US to fully charge a customer for an item that has not shipped direct to them (meaning it's no longer in the possession of the retail seller). Not every company obeys that law as they should hence the concept of a pre-order payment status in some situations. Pretty sure that Google does the pre-authorization hold for the price of the devices they sell to ensure the money "is there" at least when the order is put in place so they aren't just holding a device for you - you might not actually be able to pay for it at that time, and if another customer is then why screw the other customer out of the potential purchase, for the most part.
See how that works?

REBATE INFO: T-Mobile VR/Netflix & BOGO - Updates or Status Change after Submission?

REBATE INFO: T-Mobile VR/Netflix & BOGO - Updates or Status Change after Submission?
Hey everyone, can people start posting once they receive approval? For example, once you get an approval email, please post date submitted and the date you received approval for the VR/Netflix promo and the BOGO promo.
I submitted my VR/Netflix forms on 3/7/16 and 3/11/16 and still under review, submitted the BOGO on 3/11/16 and status is received.
Update: (3/11/2016): Submitted.
Update (4/26/16): BOGO: Looks like people started getting their approvals today, I myself got an email and verified the approval online.
Update: (5/24/2016): Got the mailed notification from t-mobile promo site.
Update: (5/28/2016): Card Received in the mail!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It says it could take 4-7 weeks not 4-7 days lol chill a little
Most of us haven't even received the phone yet. Mine was pre-ordered and *hopefully* will be receiving it today. Submitting to the promo will be the third thing that I do. (Right after opening the box and fully charging the phone.)

I know that it takes weeks, I am not expecting it to be fullfiled in a few days, I just wrote that as an example as some people in other threads have already started receving authorizations, in no apparent order.
The problem is that if some error does occur, it will be well after the return period and you are left to figure it out on your own, t-mobile will simply refer you to Samsung.
Sammy makes great hardware , but their customer service is completely outsourced and is pretty terrible compared to other hardware manufacturers.
Is there a separate form to fill out for the Netflix promo? The sheet I got from Tmobile said just to fill out the VR form on the promotions page and I will get my Netflix code with the approval email.

That's correct. I just checked mine and is fulfillment pending. I submitted 3/11
That must have just changed. I had to take a screenshot of my receipt and was wondering if that was holding me up so I emailed them a couple of days ago.... Never got a reply. I am now at "Fulfillment pending" as well so I guess I am on track.

We might be all under the false assumption that "Fulfillment Pending" actually means something, as everyone's status has changed to that.
Until you get a confirmation email that it has been accepted or a netflix code in another email I wouldn't take it as fact that it is waiting to ship.

Just curious, how do you know this for sure, I would really like that to be true? I am reading other forums and people are saying that as soon as they submit that is the message they are seeing now as well. Unless people are reviewing these submission asap, I am not sure how that is possible.
In any case, I hope you are correct and I am wrong.

REMINDER This Wednesday is last day to apply for F+F discount.

If you per-ordered for full price, you can get a discount on another... to own/sell whatever. But only 36 hours left to claim it.

I bought the phone & 360 camera on Amazon and finally obtained the code.
Does the code is only used for buying product on Essential web site?
If so, then I cannot buy it again since I am in overseas...

They are VERY slow releasing code. Probably will be December or longer before most people get theirs
I waited a week then I inqueried them with fb because I don't know the status . They told me I cannot get a coupon since mine was bought with the dropped price. That is because the phone arrives after one month and activate it too late. I shown my ordered receipt then finally received the code.
Hope release ocean color ASAP ...
I submitted on the 15th. Haven't got anything. :-/ How long do i have to wait?
